So you know how in some sports, after the game, they throw the ball into the crowd?

Turns out that's frowned upon in bowling.

I will not be answering questions.

Hey listen...rookie mistake. Next time you'll know you're suppose to beat your opponent to death with one of the pins.

Still in talks with Bethesda in tickets over this idiotic issue over my Bethesda accounts. They literally just repeated what I already knew AND STATED in my ticket this morning. LIKE, I KNOW I CAN ONLY have one account at a time linked to my Steam. I literally said that in the ticket!! But they have a limit on how many times I can unlink and relink an account per account. So I am just locked out of years worth of creation club content. It's MY BAD, I had a separate account for Fallout 76 (Also, activated Skyrim Anniversary on it as well, so that's a thing), but I didn't know they were going to discontinue their garbage launcher and leave me stuck like this. I mean, it's not the biggest deal in the world, just extremely annoying.



I'm not buying any of that trash on my currently linked account either, if that's what they are getting at. I'd rather never play the game again.

[EDIT]Oh my God. They unironically want me to just buy Fallout 4 again after creating a new Steam account and link that account so I have access to my CC content. Unbelievable!

The steam sale is coming to a close soon!

Quick -- I'm in need of... something. I'm a big fan of point and click games, have been enjoying Voodoo Detective and Disco Elysium so far, but I need more JRPGS/visual novels/point & clicks/brain-dead relaxing games like SDV/simulator games or something.. Any suggestions for this normally rowdy and rude Padudu?

Jeez.. I would keep trying. That's a very lazy, uncompromising customer support employee right there to suggest you do that!

Yeah, I checked the date this morning and realized I had to actually complete that scavenger hunt summer sale thing. That was super dumb. As for suggestions, I have none. I bought CK3, and I hate it. Well, it definitely wasn't worth what I paid. I would have rather gotten the new outfit and/or the schoolgirl outfit off the mogstore than that.

If they don't compromise then I am literally just never playing the game again, until they do an equivalent of the Skyrim AE, where it gives you all the CC content. I'll buy it on sale too, just to spite them.

[EDIT]They won't budge. I've brought out that Karen energy over this now in my next ticket response.

[EDIT]After my last ticket response my ticket has now supposedly been "escalated" to a "specialized team".

I am escalating your ticket to a specialized team to ensure you receive the best possible resolution of your issue.

"Specialized team" of the same people I'd bet lol. Keep Karen-energying it out, with persistence they might eventually cave-in. I mean why is telling a customer to repurchase a whole ass game even acceptable?? It's like the most lazy cop out answer AND rewards them for literally putting in 0 effort. I wouldn't even buy anything from them until they resolve it if I were in your shoes. I have not bought a Bethesda game in a long time lol, I have disliked some of the stuff they were doing even before the F76 fiasco.

I played CK3 on Gamepass for a bit, but I dropped it - I didn't dislike it, but.. ehh.. I had a friend who insisted that I keep playing it because it's so much fun, but it doesn't have that grab for me the same way CIV V might have. I hope you were able to get it steam refunded!

I have a steam deck so -- maybe might sate the tastes with good ol' Nancy Drew for a bit..

JRPGs? While it certainly isn't perfect, Tales of Symphonia is in the Sale for like 5 bucks.

Oh that is a good grab for a classic jRPG! I've been wanting Blue Reflection for a while, but it's still like $20 USD for being out for years..

Wasn't hyped about Valkyrie Elysium before, but now I am. The JP trailer shows off a lot of combo actions, what looks to be the classic "triangle formation" attack chain from previous VP games, and looks heavily skill based. Also, the Digital Deluxe version for PS4/PS5 comes with Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth! Only one thing to celebrate this win with.

I saw that trailer too and it looked A LOT better than the first, it definitely did get me at least a little interested.
